International Comfort Products CAC230AKA1 Flame Sensor
The flame sensor is only found on gas furnaces. It is a sensor that will sense the acceptable flame during the initial ignition of the furnace. As with most safety features, if the flame sensor is triggered everything stops until that particular problem is fixed.
Main clues the primary flame sensor needs to be replaced
- The furnace is unwilling to ramp up and shuts down
- The heating system will sort of operate sporadically when it thinks it should
- The propane or natural gas has problems trying to properly ignite and the system throws an error code

Before buying or purchasing, do your due diligence and cross-check the model number and also make a visual comparison so that you are positive that the correct flame sensor is the one being purchased. If you are not sure about the properly replacing the flame sensor on your own then it is probably best to contact a professional to do the work for you.
